Services

The Health Center offers a variety of services provided by professionals with specialized training and experience in college student health care. The Health Center has earned full accreditation by the Accreditation Association of Ambulatory Health Care, a nationally known accreditation and review organization.

Counseling and Psychological Services (CAPS), located on the fourth floor of the Health Center (812-855-5711), is available for a variety of concerns. Individual, couples, and group therapy is provided by psychologists and clinical social workers; psychiatric consultation is also available. Tele-counseling is an option (in Indiana only) as well. Students who pay the health fee receive two free counseling sessions per semester. Check our website for a current schedule of free workshops.

The Sexual Assault Crisis Service (SACS) provides crisis intervention and counseling to victims of sexual assault and their family and friends. For SACS services, including crisis response, call 812-855-8900. Services are free and available to all members of the university community. Counselors are available 24 hours a day, seven days a week.

OASIS Alcohol and Drug Support Center is the campus hub for alcohol and drug harm reduction, intervention, and recovery support. To reduce the harm created by the presence and use of alcohol and other drugs on campus, we provide education, brief intervention to students and student groups, programming, and recovery support to students on campus. We serve as a confidential, non-judgmental, “safe place” on campus for students experiencing difficulty with substance use, whether personal, or that of family and friends. OASIS is located in Eigenmann Hall, West, Room 726. Hours are 8:30 a.m. to 5:00 p.m. Monday to Friday. Evening and weekend appointments are available by request.

IU Health Center Pharmacy will fill or refill prescriptions from any licensed U.S. prescriber, including your hometown doctor. Prescriptions can be filled promptly while you wait or you can call ahead for same-day refills to pick up at your convenience. Most prescriptions with additional refills at another pharmacy can be transferred to our location. Bring in the prescription label and we'll handle the paperwork. The Health Center does file claims for prescription medications. If you have an insurance card for prescription drug coverage, please present your card to our pharmacy. Additionally, the pharmacy now delivers prescription medications to campus residence halls. Students taking a medication that is refilled on a monthly basis (excluding controlled substances) can have it delivered at no additional charge. Click here to enroll.

Charges

Payment for services may be made by cash, check, debit, or credit, or enrolled students may transfer charges directly to the Bursar’s Office. With the exception of Aetna Student Health Insurance and Blue Cross and Blue Shield plans, we do not accept insurance for medical services. (Check with Blue Cross and Blue Shield to see if Indiana University Health Center is in network with your specific plan.) The cashier will provide an itemized receipt for you to submit to your insurance company. If you are enrolled in Aetna Student Health or Blue Cross and Blue Shield, please present your insurance card to the cashier on your first visit.

Please note the Health Center is not a contracted provider for Medicaid, Medicare, or the Healthy Indiana Plan (HIP). Students with these types of insurance should use an in-network provider to maximize their benefits. If the patient chooses to use the Health Center, claims will not be submitted and the patient will be responsible for all charges.

Students currently enrolled in
three or more
credit hours are entitled to services at a significant discount (some free) by paying the mandatory health fee. Students who are enrolled in less than three credits may pay the health fee directly at the Health Center. Spouses and dependents of students (12 years or older) are eligible for services, but are not eligible to pay the health fee.
